Earlier this year we gave you the ability to slow down the rate your bookmarks are submitted to the social sites. Well, now we’ve given you the ability to speed up your submissions!

You’ll see on the Add Bookmark page and the My Bookmarks page a new menu item in the “Submission Rate” menu…Fast!

Disclaimer: there’s no guarantee that the rate you set will be exactly what you receive, because of the human element of SocialAdr. These are just estimates.

Here’s what the settings mean:Drip = Once per weekSlow = Once every 2 daysNormal = 2-3 times per dayFast = 8 times per day (costs 50% more credits)

We also added some more variability to the delays, for example Drip used to be set to every 7 days. But now it’s either every 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 days. This will make the submissions appear even more natural.

Also, we’ve disabled SubmissionBoostas we’re not sure if the social sites it was using are beneficial anymore, and we need time to do more testing. We don’t want our users to burn through credits if they aren’t getting good value. You won’t see the SubmissionBoost option anymore on the My Bookmarks or Add Bookmark page, but your history will remain accessible.

If you’ve ever tried to delete a bookmark in SocialAdr, you’ve likely noticed this warning message:

The reason we tried to make it absolutely clear in this message that deleted bookmarks could not be recovered is because the process is truly frustrating. The CMS that SocialAdr is built on, Elgg, had bookmarking capabilities already, and when a bookmark was deleted it was gone…permanently. We’ve kept it this way since the very beginning. So if you ever deleted a bookmark and then wanted to add it back, you had to email Support and get us to help you through the process.

Well, we heard your complaints and took action. Now, when you delete a bookmark, you’ll see a less-terrifying warning message, but…they are no longer *really* gone. They get disabled and disappear from your “My Bookmarks” page, and you won’t receive any social submissions on them anymore, but they still exist and can be recovered.
